The House just passed its budget resolution, so reconciliation is now officially underway. This is their bill to destroy Medicaid and SNAP while cutting taxes disproportionately for the rich. THIS IS VERY REAL and can be enacted even if all Ds vote no. Thread on what's to come and WHERE TO FIGHT.

See now we have confirmation, surely this will spread and stop the misinformation going around right? Surely creators will put a note out correcting themselves, right? Right?

160 years ago today, Robert E. Lee surrendered to Union forces in Richmond Virginia. A key reason the Confederates lost: its leaders didn't know how to run a functional economy. Crippled by hyperinflation, trade deficits, & inability to industrialize, the Confederacy tore itself to shreds.

i need people to understand that asian grocery stores aren’t just a lifeline to asian americans: they’re also a source of fresh and affordable produce to low income non-asians who live in HCOL areas

So anyway, I created an updated version of that XdanielArt chart that contains all the Adobe alternatives since there are a lot more now than there were back when that list was originally made, and Adobe has continued to get shittier and shittier.

"Age verification" laws are actually "upload your ID or get your face scanned to access every website, ending anonymity and associating your identity with everything you do online" laws and if more people understood that they would not be down for this authoritarian nonsense

One bright side to being forced to live in an AI slop tornado is now I see my artistic mistakes as incredibly endearing. The human machine of my body made that weird line. My worst day of drawing is completely untouchably better than anything AI will ever produce until the heat death of the universe

Assuming you're not intentionally a transphobe, please just ditch Harry Potter. There's plenty of much, MUCH better-written fantasy made by authors who aren't absolute shit. And if you ARE intentionally a transphobe, kindly either fuck off or educate yourself, whichever you're capable of.

That cool artist you admire is probably struggling real hard right now and trying to make it seem like things aren't as bad as they are. You should give them some love.

We are very close to a near cure for two of the highest-mortality cancers we know: glioblastoma and pancreatic cancer. These are both mRNA based treatments which are losing their funding during stage I and II trials. Thousands will die needlessly because of this motherfucker and his lies.

Reminder - Social Security is your money. You pay into it so you can collect it later. If the government shuts it down on a whim, without paying you back, that is theft.

IF this happens, you show up. see it as many times as you're financially able. the same way y'all showing up for The Day the Earth Blew Up (which again, was FINISHED by 2023 and supposed to be in theatres/HBOmax in 2024!) show companies they can't just write off a FINISHED movie as a tax break!

Cops can legally lie to you. Lawyers legally CANNOT, and they have a vested interest in keeping you OUT of jail! Their career HINGES on how successful they are at keeping their clients OUT of prison! LAWYERS ARE YOUR FRIENDS.

It's so important right now to give yourself dumb little reasons to keep going. You haven't had the best sandwich you've ever tasted. You haven't laughed the hardest you've ever laughed. You haven't gotten the best hug you've ever felt. I know these things feel small but that's why they help me.

The government is about to give OpenAI the ability to legally steal if we do not flood this page in the next 12 hours. OpenAI will have immunity from all lawsuits regarding copyright infringement. All other AI companies will follow. Do you despise AI? Dissent, retweet. Do something. #furry #art

I wanna add to this the us just disappeared Mahmoud Khalil for his speech. Things are going to get worse and the musk keeps telling people he doesn't like they should be arrested. While this could happen on any site. doing it on twitter specifically is an invitation for your rights to be violated.

I find it so egregious that Pinterest uses imagery on its site to train GenAi models. Imagery they do not own, and for the most part, is uploaded by third party users without the consent of creators. GenAi industries depend on exploitation to function and it’s gross futurism.com/pinterest-da...

Every time you see what sounds like a wild claim about woke research, you can assume a) it will fall apart under the most basic of inspection, b) the person making the claim will never be held accountable for lying, and c) it is a cover to gut useful research that we benefit from.

The first measles death in the US in a decade -- the tragic, preventable death of a child whose parents chose not to protect them with vaccination -- should spark an immediate nation-wide campaign to ensure all children are protected against preventable diseases. Anything less is unconscionable.

Honestly I think BlueSky being "boring" is kind of a good thing. Social media addiction is a huge problem with Twitter so less bullshit going on would make you want to do literally anything else more commonly
